All runs are conducted using preindustrial (1850) land use conditions in order to conform with our best - available slab ocean model data; however the orbital conditions are set for the year 2000. (journals.plos.org)
Previous studies demonstrated that the cloud feedbacks derived from the Cess experiments well capture the intermodel differences of feedbacks in the equilibrium response of slab ocean models to a doubling of CO2 (e.g., Ringer et al. 2006). (climateaudit.org)
To achieve this, we couple the LES domain to a slab ocean model, whose SST evolves according to the surface energy balance. (climate-dynamics.org)
